Switched-On Rock is an album by the Moog Machine, released in 1969 on Columbia Records. It comprises instrumental covers of popular songs from the 1960s, performed on the Moog synthesizer. It was one of a spate of albums capitalizing on the success of Switched-On Bach (1968), an album of Bach pieces performed on the Moog by Wendy Carlos.
Switched-On Rock was produced by Norman Dolph, who also wrote the liner notes. Dolph worked in the studio with colleagues Kenny Ascher and Alan Foust; they billed themselves as the Moog Machine for this and one more project. The album reached number 170 on the Billboard Top 200 and stayed on the chart for eight weeks.[1]
